Fjordman has done a follow-up report to the disturbing research he did earlier on the growing crisis of Muslim rapes against Scandinavians.

An NGO report found that being a young Swedish girl today means feeling unsafe because of the physical threat posed by violent Muslim males. The situation is so bad that some blondes dye their hair dark to avoid the constant harassment of Muslim men [Norwegian Authorities Still Covering Up Muslim Rapes, Fjordman posting on Gates of Vienna, 7/27/06].

In Sweden, ethnologist Maria Backman, in her study “Whiteness and gender,” has followed a group of Swedish girls in the suburb of Rinkeby outside Stockholm, where native Swedes have been turned into a tiny minority of the inhabitants due to rapid immigration. Backman relates that several of the girls she interviewed stated that they had dyed their hair to avoid unwanted attention and sexual harassment. They experienced that being blonde involves old men staring at you, cars honking their horns and boys calling you “whore.” [...]

This trend is not exclusive to Scandinavia. It is the same all over Western Europe wherever we find significant numbers of Muslim immigrants. In fact, the number of rapes committed by Muslim immigrants in Western nations is so extremely high that it is difficult to view them only as random acts of individuals. It resembles warfare. German journalist Gudrun Eussner considers this to be “sexuality as a weapon against disobedient and non-Muslim women, both categorized as ‘unbelievers’. Against them jihad is the duty, and what to do with women ‘conquered’ in jihad, this may be read in the Qur’an: they become slaves to be used by the victors.”

When third-world misogynous immigrants enter an area in large numbers, women’s safety is among the first losses. Any alleged benefit in “diversity” does not measure up against the substantial costs to hard-won progress.

Furthermore, why does America continue to have Muslim immigration at all when we can see the calamitous results in Europe?

In Mexico, that is.

Good story in a Chicago suburban paper about Mexican immigration law. One fact stands out:

In fact, Mexico annually deports more illegal aliens than the United States does.[Mexico law worth copying, by Mike Bailey, July 30, 2006]

That’s in absolute numbers, and in spite of the fact that Mexico doesn’t have nearly as many illegals in need of deportation as the US does.

The Department of Education decided recently to postpone renewal of the ABA’s accreditation priveleges. This, in response to the ABA’s attempt to rewrite their standards to require law schools to make “concrete action” to increase the numbers of racial and ethnic minorities in law school, is an unexpectedly wise move.

Not only does the ABA’s rewritten standard fly in the face of several state laws, but also, its results are questionable. Four concerned groups ( the Center for Individual Rights, the Center for Equal Opportunity, the American Civil Rights Institute, and the National Association of Scholars (NAS), plus five members of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights) wrote letters to the Department of Education, saying exactly that.

“Recent empirical evidence demonstrates that, contrary to what had been assumed, racially discriminatory admissions policies may actually decrease the number of minority attorneys who pass the bar rather than increase that number…. The reason is simple: Minority students who are preferentially admitted to elite law schools frequently do poorly there, while their similarly credentialed peers at less competitive law schools perform significantly better at their schools…The result may well be that racially preferential policies actually reduce the number of minority students who pass the bar.”

Quin Hillyer reported in Don’t Pass This Bar (American Spectator, not online) that if the ABA stands firm with its race-based politics, and the Department of Education refuses to renew their status as an accrediting body, then the “self-important lawyer’s cartel” that is the ABA, is broken. Currently, the ABA thinks that its new diversity standard can somehow supersede all federal, state and constitutional provisions to the contrary. However, without the access to federal funding that is tied to accreditation, the ABA is powerless.

Let’s hope this isn’t just a passing virtuous fancy on the part of the Department of Education. They will review their decision this month.
